Bale has immense respect for Clooney

Actor Christian Bale says he meant no disrespect to George Clooney when he recently advised the Hollywood star to “stop whining” about paparazzi.

“I was scratching my head when I heard that,” Bale said referring to the headlines he made, reportseonline.com.

“I’ve got immense respect for him, and I can’t even begin to imagine the invasion of his privacy. Our lives don’t even begin to compare. He’s a true movie star. I’m just somebody who was lucky to get a job,” he added.
